LIFE.

Born in love and hope, OF ecstacy
and pain, of agony and fear, of

wealth of two united hcarts-held

woocd to shadowy shores of sleep
by siren mother singing soft and
low-looking with wonders wide
and startled eyes at common things
Of life and day-taught by want and
wish and contact with the things
that touch the dimpled flesh Of babes
-lured by light and flame and
charmed by color's wondrous robes
Learning the use Of hands and
feet, and by the love Of mim;cry be-
guiled to utter speech; releasing
poisoned thoughts from grabbed
and curious marks on soiled and tat

with crooked numbers and their
changing, tangled worth; and so
through years Of alternating day
and night. until the captive grows
familiar with the chains and walls
and limitations Of life.
Aud time runs on in sun ard
shade, until the one Of all the world
is wooed and won, and all the lore
Of love is taught and learned again.
Again a home is built with the fair
chamber wherein faint dreams, like
cool and shadowy wales, divide the
billowed hours OF love. Again the
miracle Of birth--the pain Of Joy,
the kiss Of welcome and the cradle
song, drowning the drowsy prattic
Of babe.
And then the sense Of obligation
and Of wrong; pity for those who
toll and weep tears for the impris-

generous dead and in the heart the
rapture Of a high resolve

MiSmatched, iil-used, and harried,
Resolved 20 sever Hymcns chain
And some are getting married.
Each hour some weary human soul
From mother earth is fleeing.
Aud for each one that goes a soul
Is ushered into being.
Fen while we talk some dcath-bed scene
Calls up the dread hereafter.
And some gay hall OF pleasure rings
With shouts of 10y and laughter.
And some are doing pious deeds
To human hearts appealing
And some are giving aims 10 help

And railroad. trains are rushing ON
Like spectral demons gliding.
While death. with Javeiin pointed, is

And fires are raging madiy.

And ships are going down at sea
With human beings froigh;cd.
And some are praying earnestly.
And some at Heaven blasphcning,
And some are acting frank and fair,

And some 10 save a human iifo

Blind TO their nelshbors sorrow.
